My Mini-Adventure To Edinburgh

I'm so excited that I'm having two mini-adventures in two weeks!

The first one was last weekend in Edinburgh visiting a friend and this weekend I'm going to Belfast for a friend's wedding!

I use Twitter a lot for both business and personal stuff, and I've
made some great friends throught it, including my bestest Twitter friend
Leanne and our lovely chum James. Together we were TwinemaAberdeen, a
weekly cinema-going group, but at the end of last year, James moved away
to Edinburgh.

Leanne and I still go on our weekly visits to the cinema, so decided to take the show on tour and pay James a visit.

I love travelling by train, and we got an ace table with loads of
space, which allowed us to play with my purchases from the new Aberdeen
Cath Kidston shop! I bought a model village, dinosaur finger puppet
(which I have now decided is actually a dragon!) and a wind-up rabbit. I
also bought a Lego mini-figure which turned out to be the Statue Of
Liberty and was a welcome addition to the wee town!

James met us from the station and we dumped our stuff at his flat and
went shopping. (I've bought some amazing things this week, but I'll do
a separate blog on that!)

We got our gladrags on and headed out to the Red Squirrel
for a lovely meal and drinks, then ventured down to a fantastic little
pub on Hanover Street which I can't remember or find the name of, but it
was like a comfy living room and a great place to chat.

I was in dire need of a Blue WKD so we headed to The Standing Order and then 99 Hanover Street.
On Sunday we went to Cuthbert's Coffee & Bistro
for brunch before going to the cinema to see We Bought A Zoo. I was
expecting the film to be a bit cheesy but it was so sad! It also makes
you want to buy a zoo!
